About this book
Reviews
“The Sailor Prince is highly readable … . Schneider has produced a very fine and meticulously researched work that furthers our understanding of modern monarchy, the genealogy of national myths, and European interactions with the wider world in a time of great change. It is to be much welcomed.” (Jonathan Triffitt, Royal Studies Journal, Vol. 7 (1), 2020)
